My mom has dementia.

It's time to bring hospice on board. They will keep her comfortable and pain free until she leaves this world for the next.
Dementia sucks! That's a fact, and far too many people are having to deal with it with their loved one(s).
Just be there for your mom and don't leave anything unsaid.

Your mother may now require Hospice help and at her age, bedbound and in pain in her 90s, it is time to recognize that you are dealing with the end of life. There is likely to be little improvement down but only a downward projectory, each day of which will involve more pain and torment for your loved one.

It is time for family to discuss with the MDs whether it is time for comfort care and a recognition that the end of life is approaching. I am sorry, but this has been a long life, and there is little to be gained in making the end of it more painful than it must be.

I am so sorry, this must be so hard on you and everyone in your family. I'm not there yet with my mom, but hoping she goes before we get there.

Sleeping is normal, I think of it as a way to rest her brain which is always struggling to make sense out this dementia life .

Her brain is lost and her body is in pain , if laying around is what she wants to do its ok

We work hard all are life maybe it's time she just doesn't want to work anymore.

Any ? You have let us know, your not alone in this. Many here have or will be where you are.

Best of luck

Welcome Brandyanna,

I'm sorry about your Mom's dementia and the stress and sadness this is probably causing you. You've come to the right place for support, many of have traveled this road with LOs.

Do you have a question or something specific you need guidance with?

The aids "don't mind" because your Mom's repetition is a common dementia behavior. Has she been checked for a UTI? Sleeping and laying around could be signs of physical decline/pain, depression, or just being ready to check out.

Is she in hospice care? If not, maybe it is time?
